Michalak Can't Connect

Adam Lamers

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

The action folded to Jakub Michalak in the hijack who ripped all in for his last 111,000 chips. James Koller was in the big blind and made the call to put Michalak at risk.

Jakub Michalak: K♥Q♥ All in
James Koller: 8♥8♣

The flop came J♦10♦3♥ and Michalak picked up even more outs with a straight draw. However, the 8♠ on the turn gave Koller a set of eights and the 6♠ on the river bricked out, forcing Michalak to the rail with a min-cash.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Clement Meunier in early position and Ricardo Alvardo in middle position were already all in as Frank Flowers, Samuel Roussy-Majeau, and Kenneth Der went to the flop of 10♣5♠9♠ with around 220,000 in the pot.

Der then bet 20,000 from the hijack and Flowers called on the button. Roussy-Majeau also called in the big blind and the turn came the 6♥.

Action checked to Flowers who bet 225,000. Roussy-Majeau took a few minutes before folding, while Der quickly got out of the way.

Flowers turned over 9♥8♠ for a pair and straight draw, while Alvarado had A♥J♥. Meunier, though, was ahead with K♦K♣ and held on through the 10♦ river to take most of the pot, while Alvarado was sent to the rail.

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Seunghyun Nam raised it up from early position and Mike Matusow flat-called from the cutoff. The flop came 10♦7♥4♥ and Nam continued with a bet which Matusow called.

The 10♠ paired the board on the turn and Nam checked this time. Matusow put together a bet of 42,000 and Nam stuck around to see the 7♦ on the river. Both players tapped the table and Matusow announced a pair of eights with 8♠8♦. However, Nam flipped over A♠7♠ for a rivered full house to claim the pot.

"Jesus! Come on man," Matusow banged his fist on the table as he continued to mumble to himself into the next hand.

Stewart Morrison

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

When the action folded around to Andrejs Prost in the cutoff, he raised to 16,000. Next to act, Loic Debregeas, three-bet to 40,000. The players in the blinds both folded, and Prost responded by moving all in, covering Debregeas' stack of roughly 170,000.

Debregeas made the call, and the players flipped their cards over.

Loic Debregeas: Q♣Q♦ All in
Andrejs Prost: K♥K♣

It was an unfortunate spot for Debregeas, and there was no bad beat to be dished out, as the board ran out 10♦4♣8♣9♣2♠, sending him to the rail.

Dorea Wins the Flip

Gabrielle Barredo

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Play was already underway with Andrey Marsavin calling Romulo Dorea's all-in for 117,000.

Romulo Dorea: A♥K♣ All in
Andrey Marsavin: 9♠9♦

Marasavin felt pretty good about his chances when the hands were shown, hoping his hand would win the coin flip.

He hit the table with his fist, visibly frustrated when the flop dropped 7♠K♥10♥. Dorea was potentially looking at a double up but Marasavin's odds increased when the turn J♥ was dealt, giving him a gutshot straight draw.

The river 7♦ ended Dorea's tension as he scooped the pot for a double.

Player	Chips	Progress
Andrey Marsavin	360,000 275,000	275,000
Romulo Dorea	190,000 54,000	54,000

Level 16 : Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

On a flop of 4♦9♣5♣, Gary Floyd was all in for around 50,000 with Jose Bogarin making the call to try and send him to the rail.

Gary Floyd: A♠J♠ All in
Jose Bogarin: K♣8♣

Floyd had ace-high, but Bogarin had a pair and flush outs to win. The 8♥ fell on the turn and Bogarin was catapulted into the lead with a pair of eights. Bogarin improved to a flush on the 10♣ river, which meant Floyd was out.
